OUR MISSION

To build an enriching educational setting for economically disadvantaged youth, using athletics as a vehicle to inspire them to fulfill their academic, physical, and personal potential. BKYSC is driven by an ethical imperative to instill values of integrity, perseverance, self-esteem, and hard work to empower student-athletes to be leaders in school, on the court, and in the community

THE CHALLENGE

Less than 57% of Brooklyn students graduate from High School. 100% of our seniors graduate from High School. Out of these seniors, 100% make it to college. Making sure our students excel – that is our challenge.

WHY BASKETBALL

Basketball at BKYSC serves as a hook to engage student-athletes in our educational programs – it is the catalyst that inspires BKYSC student-athletes to take a greater interest in their academics and in their future.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Donations go to funding tutors, coaches, facilities, text books, equipment, and more. All of these things help students involved with BKYSC excel on the court, in the classroom, at home and in their daily lives.
